Wear for Art Thou

Alexander Wang

If the heat of summer doesn’t kill you, the hiatuses just might.

Oh, you can survive the break from Law & Order: SVU; it’s the three months without cashmere that are hardest to take.

So why not welcome an early return to autumn with Alexander Wang’s tempting new collection of fine-gauge styles?

You’ll be lured into wearing the low-scoop-neck dress and high-waisted skirt right now. Then, by the time temperatures really drop, you’ll slip into something more substantial, like the turtleneck or baby doll and long-sleeve dresses.

The henley and cardigan will become your go-to basics, but it’s the shawl-collar jacket that’ll have you making a serious fall entrance.

Your very own season premiere, so to speak.

Available at Hillary Rush, 8222 West Third Street, between South Harper and South La Jolla Avenues (323-852-0088 or hillaryrush.com). To see styles, go to alexanderwang.com.
